Latto Celebrates The Release Of “Sugar Honey Iced Tea”
Latto dropped Sugar Honey Iced Tea on Friday, featuring collaborations with Young Nudy, Hunxho, Coco Jones, Megan Thee Stallion, Ciara, Mariah the Scientist, Teezo Touchdown, Cardi B, and Flo Milli. “I feel like what I’m doing has not been done before, so let’s start there. [Aesthetically], I’ve been pulling from Mariah Carey, Beyoncé, and Lil’ Kim,” she explained of the album, as caught by VIBE. “[Musically], I’ve been pulling from Kelis, but obviously with a Southern hip-hop twist. They have very feminine energy, but masculine in the sense of confidence. I feel like they was boss bi**hes. It just gave ‘I’m that girl.’ When you hear and see them in that prime era, it gave ‘I’m here to stay.’”

Latto Labeling Lil’ Kim The G.O.A.T. Of Female MCs Has Nicki Minaj Fans In An Uproar
If you don’t plan on giving Nicki Minaj credit for what she’s done for the hip-hop world, then prepare for the backlash. The Barbz are striking back once again after Latto’s recent claim that Lil’ Kim is indeed the G.O.A.T. of female rappers. In a recent chat with her sister on Complex, she was doing a Q&A following the release of her new studio LP, Sugar Honey Iced Tea. One of the question cards read, “Who is the GOAT female rapper?”, and before really answering the question she dubbed herself the best ever.
“Big Mama”, she replied. Her sister also agreed “not even being biased”. After moving past the self-confidence, Latto decided to give Lil’ Kim her flowers. She cites her timeless music and fashion as the main reasons. Additionally, perhaps in a subliminal manner, Latto thinks she’s the best due to her being such “a queen”.

As we said, Nicki Minaj fans are always going to defend their queen, and they are definitely letting Latto hear it. They are not feeling her answer, mostly because its coming across as fake. The Atlanta MC is one of the many ladies not on good terms with the Trinidadian superstar, so they feel she’s saying someone else on purpose. “I know Kim tired of these rap girlies showing her love AFTER their fallout with Nicki
if you miss being a barb just say that
”, one user expresses. “Mind u latto never once say lil Kim when she was coming into the industry it was always Nicki Nicki Nicki!!!”, another adds.
What are your thoughts on Latto claiming that Lil’ Kim is the greatest female rapper of all time? Do you think she’s just saying this because of the disconnect between her and Nicki Minaj? Who would you say is the best femcee of all time and why? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments.

Gunna’s “Today I Did Good” Music Video Is A Reminder To Just Live Your Life
One thing fans have learned about Gunna is that he loves to make a music video. Every album cycle of his comes with several visuals. a Gift & a Curse came with six videos for the album’s fifteen tracks. His latest album, One of Wun, is no different. After releasing videos for “whatsapp (wassam),” “back in the a” and “Prada Dem” with Offset, Gunna is back with the fourth video of this album cycle. “today i did good,” a more understated cut than the high-energy tracks Gunna is most known for, is the latest from the album to receive a video.
“today i did good” is Gunna celebrating himself. He applauds himself for getting on a diet (“I ain’t been eating no bullsh*t”). His fitness journey is one he’s documented himself for the last few years. He thanks God that he’s still rich, and talks about his bachelor life. The beat is mellower than one may expect from a Gunna track, and overall, it’s pleasant to listen to. The video, directed by Spike Jordan, is as impressive.

Gunna – “today i did good”: Watch:
The video itself is Gunna going through several days in his life. The video is also shot on a GoPro-like camera. It gives viewers his point of view in a way that would be similar to how Gunna himself goes through the day. He also time stamps every major point in the day. The video begins with him working out in Rome at 4:45 AM. From there, he eats breakfast, gets dressed, and leaves his hotel at 9:38 AM. He goes clothes shopping and then goes to a fashion show. Gunna leaves Rome at almost 7PM, and heads to South Africa to shoot the video for Tyla’s “Jump,” a track he features on. The scenes in South Africa follow a similar format. After his day in South Africa, he briefly heads to Los Angeles. He then goes to Ohio State University’s Schottenstein Center, the location of the first show of his Bittersweet Tour.
The video’s ending scene is from a photoshoot for P, Gunna’s clothing brand. Following the shoot, they return a room to in a scene that suggests a deluxe version of One of Wun is on the way. There are two pieces of art. One is the album’s standard art. Instead of the standard’s blue and white flowers, the other piece of art shows his head covered with orange and yellow flowers. The video’s last message is essentially telling viewers to make the most of their day. Gunna also wants his fans to not listen to what other people think of them. It’s a nice message to end a very well-crafted music video for one of the more underrated tracks on One of Wun. Watch the video above.

Boosie Badazz Theorizes Cassie Wants More Money Out Of Diddy
Boosie Badazz says the legal situation that Diddy is dealing with is a “mess” and theorized that Cassie wants more money than she got from settling her lawsuit against the industry veteran last year. He discussed Cassie’s allegations of misconduct against Diddy during an interview with VladTV.
“It’s just a mess right now,” Boosie said of the situation. “It’s just a mess everywhere right now. Cassie and that side don’t sound too happy. I know she ain’t got no $30 million.” From there, he implied she’d be living a quieter lifestyle if that was the case. Fans joined in with unfounded theories in the comments section of Vlad’s interview on YouTube. “She won’t be able to enjoy that money,” one top response reads. “She might ‘mysteriously’ pass away too. She’s securing her child. And there’s nothing comedic about this case. It’s ridiculous and sad.” Another wrote: “She probably sign paper work can’t talk about it.”

He previously reacted to the Bad Boy mogul’s apology video that released in the wake of CNN publishing footage of him hitting Cassie at a hotel in 2016.

Diddy has consistently denied all of the accusations he’s faced over the last year.

Quando Rondo Pleads Guilty In His 2023 Federal Drug Trafficking Case
Quando Rondo, according to a new report from XXL, is pleading guilty to his 2023 federal drug trafficking investigation. The specific charges include drug conspiracy and participating in criminal street gang activity. His sentence is currently unknown, but that decision should come to light very soon. In the meantime, the Savannah, Georgia rapper is out on bond until the time comes. Following his guilty plea, Quando Rondo delivered an apology in a press conference just outside the confines of the courthouse, according to local news outlet WTOC.
“I really wanna give an apology to the city of Savannah”, Rondo began. “I wanna give an apology to my family and friends, loved ones and most of all my daughters for taking all my family and all my loved ones through this stressful point”. Going back to the sentence for a second, the “ABG” MC could be receiving a much shorter one. He can thank himself for accepting a plea deal in addition to pleading guilty to a lesser charge of conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute and to distribute controlled substances (marijuana).

Quando Rondo Is Now Awaiting His Sentence
WTOC says he’s facing up to five years now instead of a possible 20 previously. So, with that in mind, it will be interesting to see what the judge decides. There is a chance he receives the full half-decade sentence, though. What could lead to that is all of his past run-ins with the law over the last few years such as a link to a shooting in 2020 and a lawsuit for assault and battery in 2019.
